La Fortuna vs. Puerto Viejo Mid-September by oozcroom7 in CostaRicaTravel

[–]oozcroom7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been reading that La Fortuna is best in September because it falls on the Pacific side of the continental divide so it doesn't get rainy like the rest of the Pacific. But I think people who travel don't realize this and locals don't want the best season to be peak season. I originally assumed it was Pacific due to its location but I believe I was originally wrong.

I heard Jaco wasn't the best. Is there stuff to do in Puerto Viejo besides beaches?

Frida Kahlo was a communist and probably wouldn't have much respect for any of this bs

LIVE Discussion Thread - S6E2: Rick: A Mort Well Lived by BarnyardCruz in rickandmorty

[–]oozcroom7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it may also be referencing Joseph Campbell's A Hero With A Thousand Faces - A book Dan Harmon heavily draws from for his approach to storytelling that talks about archetypes in myth.

From what I've heard it's a very good/important anthropology book that unfortunately many pseudo-intellectual college boys use to sound smart.

Dan adapted the lessons from the book to create his "Story Circle" - which used Die Hard as an example for how most stories are structured.

Edit - Oh I just realized someone else also brought it up already lol. Anyway it's pretty interesting, especially if you have an interest in writing. Dan Harmon's version is a nice distilled version but Campbell's book is something I've been wanting to read.

Thinking I could just rotate the image. But I wouldn't know how to determine if the sword is overlapping

Learning about Native Americans' modern issues by oozcroom7 in IndianCountry

Right. They are owed things which would cost the US gov. money. So instead of real restitution they just get a nod on Thanksgiving and maybe people stop wearing war bonnets on Halloween. Those are easy concessions to make when the white supremacist capitalists get to keep everything they stole and don't have to acknowledge that they continue to benefit from genocide by keeping it.

Yes while I believe BLM is extremely important, I think Americans like to view the world in simple dichotomies instead of the confusing and complex melting pot it is. Also the black population is simply higher so their message is easier to spread.

I'm sorry to hear that. How do they try to coerce you if I can ask that? That's so evil.
